Repost Update: Source of Life and Prayer

11/10/2024

“Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that you will abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit." ---(Romans 15:13, NASB)

As many followers of Christ have been in deep prayer for our nation, God is showing Himself strong on behalf of those that fear Him. In a time of great deception, where many have lost the fear of God and would stoop to any level imaginable as a wolf among God's sheep, the LORD of Hosts is asking His people to see Him for who He is!  
 
It is refreshing when God speaks and we can trace His heart and hands back to His Word and His receipts of His move among His people. With all the requests we have received, we give you the infallible Word of God, when we had similar requests back in 2019. We find our hope and the source of life in God's Word. We offer you this unshakeable hope that is still a right now encouragement for our times. As we revisit this post from November of 2019, our prayer is that the Holy Spirit would speak and illuminate the hearts and lives of His people with His timeless truth.

We receive requests from people asking how to have hope and remain with Christ during their difficult times. This scripture in Romans 15:13 was a prayer that Apostle Paul prayed for the believers in Rome to help them navigate a tough time in their culture. To lose hope is to lose meaning in life. The God of Hope is the eternal source that never runs dry. To believe in Him is to know the conduit of God’s Hope to the world-Jesus Christ our Savior. There is no other assurance for a meaningful life outside of Jesus Christ. He is the hope of the world. My beautiful wife says it so well, when she states that hope is a Person and His name is Jesus Christ. No matter what you may be going through, know that there is a way- His name is Jesus Christ. We are praying that your faith in God will not fail or be lost but grounded as God pours fresh joy and peace into your heart and life. This kind of hope is beyond the human type. It is a supernatural kind of hope that only the Holy Spirit gives. What the Holy Spirit does is always matchless and limitless. May our Lord continue to grace you with His eternal hope as you believe. God bless you!

In Christ's Love,

Drs. Johnson & Feyi Obamehinti

Repost Update: Seeing God As He Is.

“Oh, magnify the Lord with me, and let us exalt His name together.” --Psalm 34:3
 
As many followers of Christ have been in deep prayer for our nation, God is showing Himself strong on behalf of those that fear Him. In a time of great deception, where many have lost the fear of God and would stoop to any level imaginable as a wolf among God's sheep, the LORD of Hosts is asking His people to see Him for who He is!  
 
A few years back during one of our ministry assignments, the Holy Spirit quickened Psalm 34:3. This is a favorite scripture to lean into at all times, especially in the times we are living in right now. As we revisit this post from November of 2015, our prayer is that the Holy Spirit would speak and illuminate the hearts and lives of His people with His timeless truth.

        “How my people see me affects everything in their lives”.  - God's Voice To His People

Here are the words of admonition and challenge to us as followers of Christ in 2024  Have we made our Almighty God too small in our understanding? Psalm 34: 3 is not implying that we make God big; because we cannot make Him big. Nothing we do will ever make God big. He already is big and will always be! However, this scripture is calling us to an understanding of seeing God big. Take the example of a telescope that is used to look at a star that is way out in the sky. The telescope does not make the star bigger but it helps us to see the star big.  In similar way, we cannot make God bigger, but we are to see Him bigger, for Who God Is!
 
Beloved brothers and sisters, God calls us to magnify Him, to see Him big. The bigger God is seen in our lives, the greater the effect of His presence and His power that works in and through us. Come and let us magnify our God!

Lessons From Olympics

                     "Now then we are ambassadors for Christ" - 2 Corinthians 5:20


The 2024 Summer Olympics was highly watched around the world. With one sport or the other as a favorite, the Olympics is a source of inspiration for young and old alike. Congratulations to all teams from around the world, representing their countries.The USA team came back with a total of 126 medals- 40 Gold, 44 Silver and 42 Bronze!

For followers of Christ, there are some lessons to glean from the Olympics. In fact, the Bible uses sports as an analogy of how Christians are to live their lives. 1 Corinthians 9:24-25, states, "Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receives the prize? So run, that ye may obtain.And every man that strive for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible."
In this episode, Drs. Johnson and Feyi Obamehinti encourage followers of Christ with three key lessons from the Olympics. Walking with God requires discipline to stay deeply committed to Christ, so we can represent Christ well. It's time for followers of Christ to stand up and be counted for the Kingdom of God!

In Christ's Love,

Standing In The Gap

6/30/2024

In a time when there are various agitations in our world, followers of Christ are called to stand in the gap of prayer. Ezekiel 22:30 explains this so well, "I sought for a man among them who would build up the wall and stand in the gap before me for the land, that I would not destroy it, but I found no one."

Our continuous prayer is that each believer in Christ be found building up the walls of our communities, churches and families, as we each stand in the gap of prayer for our land. Let us press into God's heart, lifting up our hearts and voices for the many needs of this hour. 

Our Lord's Prayer is a model prayer for anyone to follow as a prayer guide. Simple, yet profound in it's sincerity of pouring one's heart to God. We encourage you to pray along from Matthew 6:9-13, "Pray then like this: “Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name.Your kingdom come, your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil." Amen!


In Christ's Love,

Drs. Johnson & Feyi Obamehinti

Repost: Happy Father's Day!

Happy Father's Day to my incredible husband! You are amazing! I love you! Happy Father’s Day to my Dad, brothers, brothers in Christ, spiritual fathers, community fathers, pastors, colleagues, and mentors.  We salute you and pray continual blessings upon you! Two weeks ago, we had a late spring cleaning and found some cherished pictures of daddy-daughter times. What a treat traveling down memory lane, looking back in deep gratitude for all the LORD has done. I did not ask any permission to post these three favorite pictures- it is called family home manager benefits 😊. Our beautiful daughters are now 33, 31 and 29! To God be the glory! He is indeed Good!

Much Love Always,

A Rare Gift

5/10/2024

Thank you so much to everyone that celebrated my Beautiful Phenomenal Queen. This weekend we get to celebrate her birthday and Mothers Day! This is pronounced today more than ever! My Amazing wife is a rare gift that God has blessed me with. The mother of my daughters! I have watched her sacrifice her life for not just them, but me and everyone she invests in because she believes in people.

Our daughters would not be who they are today without her relentless sacrifice pouring into them on her knees in prayer, in life and every turn of what a godly mother is. I can still remember like yesterday, the eleven years of homeschooling our daughters and other children from other families. This woman is a superhero! She is a good friend to the Proverbs 31 woman the Bible describes. And I am a better man because of her.

We love and appreciate her immensely. And many of you know firsthand how contagious her love for God and people are. You are a witness to the Christ life in her. She is an epitome of beauty, both inside and outside. Her internal beauty shines brightly to the glory of God! And to all our beloved mothers, we salute you for serving your families relentlessly. Thank you! Mother's Day salutations do not have to end with this weekend. God Bless you!

For The Cause of Christ,

Dr. Johnson Obamehinti

Jesus Sacrifice: Our Transformation

3/30/2024

Easter is here! Jesus Christ our Savior is Risen! The huge sacrifice Jesus Christ made on our behalf on the cross so we could have a relationship with God, the wonderment of the power of transformation is fascinating. It is Jesus' sacrifice that made our transformation possible as His followers.

Though a gradual journey of metamorphosis, the resurrection made our change a reality. Metamorphosis quickly brings to mind the butterfly. The butterfly undergoes radical changes from starting out as a maggot to adult fly, to a caterpillar and then the final stage of butterfly.

Each of these stages is crucial to the development and growth of a butterfly. Skip a stage of metamorphosis and we have an incomplete cycle of change. This is similar to what our Savior went through during Holy Week. Good Friday could not be skipped to get to Resurrection Day. Each day of the Holy Week was necessary for our ultimate transformation.
Happy Resurrection! Happy Easter! Jesus Christ our Savior is Risen!

In Christ's Love,

Drs. Johnson & Feyi Obamehinti

The Hope of Lent

3/2/2024

Greetings Beloved! Worthy is the Lord our God: to receive glory, honor and praise! Through the goodness of God, we closed out a leap month and welcomed the third month of 2024! The month of March officially kicks off spring and concludes Lent. We continue our journey with Jesus Christ towards the cross that represents Christ's ultimate sacrifice and God's redemptive love for mankind. We continue to declare that God will be glorified in 2024 and His Kingdom advanced through His people.

As we continue our Lent journey, we are focusing on the hope of lent. This is the living hope found in Jesus Christ- the way, the truth and the life. We are joining the body of Christ as we journey with Jesus Christ in His ministry, crucifixion, death, burial and resurrection. We encourage you to continue to pray on these prayer requests during this Lent season:
1. Hope and Redemption for Families 
2. Hope in our Public Schools
3. Hope and Redemption for our Youth
4. Hope for the USA and the World 
5. Hope of Transformation for the Church 

Opening this month is the Oasis annual 2024 Excellence In Character Scholarship. Through the faithfulness and goodness of God, three scholarships will be awarded again this year in three counties- Dallas, Tarrant and Collin counties. Please share with any graduating senior in the North Texas area that could be blessed by this scholarship. Details for the scholarship can be found at either of these websites: Oasis Connection Ministries | Oasis Focus Inc. Thank you for helping us in  sharing this with your networks and communities.

In Christ's Love,

Drs. Johnson & Feyi Obamehinti

Making Lent Personal

2/3/2024

Blessed be the name of the LORD God Almighty! We closed out the first month of January and welcomed February 2024 with thanksgiving. We continue to declare that God will be glorified in 2024 and His Kingdom advanced through His people. This is a special month in many aspects. The month known as the month of love, our prayer focus is that God's love will permeate hearts and souls towards salvation this month! As we celebrate the rich history of African Americans this month, we pray the month's celebration will spur not just our nation but our world to a fresh level of love and unity. For it is in the place of unity that God commands His blessings (Psalm 133:1,3).

God's kind of love has the power to save, heal and transform. We invite you to join us this month as we share God's transformative love and lift up His kingdom of grace and truth. Take a listen to Oasis of Hope Podcast- God's love is medicine to our souls, spirits and bodies. Let us continue to pray this coming week for the revival of God's transforming love for our world, nation, churches, families, communities, youth and schools.

In just a few days we will begin Lent- a special time dedicated to honoring the journey of Jesus Christ to the cross for humanity. This year, the 40 days lent begins Wednesday, February 14, 2024 and runs through Thursday, March 28, 2024. These 40 days are observed by Christians all over the world and preludes Easter. Through the years, men and women of God have made these 40 days a personal time to journey with Jesus Christ through focused awareness of His Presence. This focused awareness of Christ's Presence takes different forms and format as the Holy Spirit leads each one. 

Brothers and sisters, we want to encourage you to make this year's lent period a personal one. Ask the Holy Spirit how He would want you to journey with Christ this year, 2024. Listen, as He guides you and provides instruction in His Word. Then journey through lent one day at a time. This year, we are making lent personal through the Joshua Project- a ministry that provides information and brings awareness about the different people groups around the world yet to be reached with the gospel. 

Some of our ministry friends and partners live in these areas and are committed to seeing the gospel reach and transform their communities. There are currently over seven thousand unreached people groups in the world. That's over three billion people yet to have the opportunity to hear the good news of the gospel of Jesus Christ. This lent, we are joining hearts and resources to see people in these unreached areas encounter God's transformative love. We invite you to join us as we make lent personal this year.

In Christ's Love,

Drs. Johnson & Feyi Obamehinti

2024 The Year of the LORD

1/6/2024

Happy New Year Friends and Partners! 

Enter His gates with thanksgiving and His courts with praise! We are declaring 2024 as the year of the LORD! God will be glorified this year and His Kingdom advanced through His people. Since 2024 is already in God's Almighty hands, God will continue to be God. He will continue to save souls, heal the broken-hearted, answer prayers, deliver and restore. This is who God is! It does not matter what 2023 was like, God is calling His people to determine that this year 2024, our gaze will be on the LORD, our eyes and heart fixed on Him and we will continue to allow His Presence to lead and guide us in 2024.

As our usual focus in the new year, we are dedicating this first month to the LORD with prayer and fasting. We are asking God for a fresh commitment to Him, His Heart, His Ways, His purpose and His Kingdom. Our prayer as we embark on 2024, is that the life of God that dwells in each of Christ's followers, will be refreshed and released as a fragrance of Christ. It is our prayer that every minister of the Gospel will experience a fresh outpouring of the Holy Spirit for this year. We look forward to all God will do through us together in 2024.

We are excited to continue to partner with the Maker of heaven and earth as we partner with each of you, our ministry friends and partners, to work together in advancing God's kingdom on earth. Let's look to Him as He guides us step by step for 2024. "You make known to me the path of life; in your presence there is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore" (Psalm 16:11).  Happy New Year!

In Christ's Love,

Drs. Johnson & Feyi Obamehinti
